Today's-----------------------------------It's Sunday with a chance of a light drizzle.

The Sunday school teacher was teaching her class about the difference between right and wrong.

"All right, children, let's take another example." she said.  "If I were to get into a man's pocket and take his billfold with all his money, what would I be?"

Little Luke raised his hand, and with a confident smile he blurts out, "You'd be his wife!"

Today's----------------------------Just remember I don't write them.

A very attractive woman carrying a stack of boxes after a lengthy shopping spree, was walking down the street when all of a sudden a strong gust of wind lifted her skirt.

A fellow standing nearby took a long and thorough look and smiled broadly.

The woman, of course, noticed and snapped at him, "Well, I can certainly see that you are no gentleman!"

The guy, still smiling, said, "Yep, and I can see you aren't one either!"

HOW I LEARNED TO MIND MY OWN BUSINESS

I was walking past the mental hospital the other day, and all the patients were shouting, '13....13....13.'

The fence was too high to see over, but I saw a knot hole in one of the planks, so I looked through to see what was going on.....

Some idiot poked me in the eye with a stick!

Then they all started shouting  '14....14.....14'...

Ha! Ha!

Today's-----------------------------is this McGiver?

Jill had been thinking about coloring her hair.  One day while going through a magazine, she came across an ad for a hair coloring product featuring a beautiful young model with hair in a shade she liked.

Wanting a second opinion, she asked her husband, "How do you think this color would look on a face with a few wrinkles?"

He took the magazine, looked at the picture, crumpled it up, straightened it out, and studied it again.  "Just great, babe."

Harry, a retired gentleman volunteers to entertain residents at convalescent homes and patients in hospitals by taking his karaoke machine with him.

At one performance, he told some well-worn stories and sang a number of songs.  When he finished, he bid the folks farewell and said, "I do hope you get better soon."

One elderly man yelled from the back, "We hope you get better, too!"

Today's---------------------------------------------Have anyone done this?

After starting her new diet, Jan altered her drive to work to avoid passing her favorite bakery.

She accidentally drove by the bakery the other morning and as she approached, there in the window was a host of goodies.

Jan felt this was no accident, so she prayed, "Lord, it's up to you.  If you want me to have any of those delicious goodies, create a parking space for me directly in front of the bakery."

And sure enough, on the eighth time around the block, there it was!
